A lovely view from above over a horse paddock to the lake... Benches invite you to linger.

A path leads down to a rest area at Blankensee Lake with somewhat limited visibility. Caution: From there, a well-trodden path runs westward. After a short while, it becomes increasingly lost and overgrown, finally ending at a viewing point. There are unofficial exits from this pasture, but it's best not to use the path at all, especially since the pasture is private, even if it hasn't been used as such for some time.

I like St. Mary's Church. But I don't pay admission. Everyone should be able to stay in a place of worship. I think it's pretty cheeky to charge admission to visit a church.

It's beautiful here, especially when the rapeseed is in bloom.

Here the Wagenitz flows into Lake Ratzeburg. From here you can also take a boat across Lake Ratzeburg, Henry the Strong or rent a small boat or canoe.

The Wakenitz is the natural outflow of Lake Ratzeburg. It leaves the lake at the northernmost point near Rothenhusen and runs in a north-northwesterly direction to the city of Lübeck. The Wakenitz, a right tributary of the Trave, is about 14.9 km long. Until the construction of the Elbe-Lübeck Canal (1896–1900), the Wakenitz flowed around the city hill of Lübeck and flowed into the Trave south of the city. After the canal was built, the Wakenitz was blocked off by a dam (Falkendamm) and drained via the culvert into the Krähenteich/Mühlenteich, among other places. The Wakenitz forms the border between the federal states of Schleswig-Holstein and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania over long stretches. Due to its wildness, which was also caused and supported by its remote location on the former inner-German border until 1989, the river is also called the "Amazon of the North". Source: Wikipedia
